During the past yearthey became very much lissatishedat the rato paid thon for their work,and now they are on the move.They say that this is no country forGortans; that we think more ofthe negroes and will always givethem the preference. There is notriuti i4 such an assertion, ofcourse. The trouble with these fellows is that when they come toAmerica they think it is a free man's< o-mti y and that everybody is to livealike. They must take the countryas they find it. If they can't getcake they must content themselveswith coin-bread until they havesaved enough from their earnings toindulge in luxuies. A negro will liveon a peck of meal, three pounds ofnott and a quart of molasses a weekand think he is living in clover, buttie Go:man must have the beat oror ' ho bcconoas diestSfied andqumrrelsome."We would call the attention of the.Medium to the fact that it is justthis system of treating immigrantsthat is calculated to keep them fromour State.

Br:t iffarmers expect to get white menand women to work farms, and liveon "a peck of meal, three pounds ofmeat and a quart of molasses aweek," they may as well at onco resumie the unvam ied employment ofnegroes, doing hatlf wvork, anid,unless converted, voting yeoar i andyear out to rob themz of their s.~tenianoo. Until the farm owners inSouth Carolina leamrn that educatedand enlightened whito labor fromEurope must be trealted with considertion, they cannot expect toinduce iammigrants to come here.An inferior laborer, who dloes halfwork relimetantly, may subsist on a.peck of .meal andl a quart of molasses a week, but intehigent, energeticand superior white labor can do0better aund will not be satisfied.Pickings sand stealings the honestenergetic Gepmn immigrant is noteducatedl to practice, and consequently be fiadsa it a little difficult,with a faniily to support, to live ona peckc of meal, three pounds ofmea nt and a quart of molasses.

C. SEEGERS guarantees his Beer tobe pure and reliable. He does not adulterate it, but br6wa from the best barley,malt and hops.Columbia; Feb 27, tf23'3D'EEL.T HE Commissioner of Agriculture, inhis report for the fiscal year 1875,speaks as follows:"There can be no doubt of tho general,adulteration of all malt liquors. JJgpgia-iltids are impos;ed. nnl an increasingvigilance practiced to detect and punishsuch frauds, by a system of inspection ofall malt liquors mfaiufactured beforo ex)ose(l to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country,shere there are no liws on the subject,and no oflieer to carefully analyze theprodntls of the brewey? Some years ago,Professor Nlapes, of Naw York, analezedthe beer fromi a dozen dir'oront brewerie,,en-l all were fouind adulterated with nioxions sub~stancees, It is said that the salieof drugs to brew---rs is a proitable p~art ofthe traelo. Th'iis is perfectly infamous.Coeciulus indicius, tishi-b'erry) nluxvomnica (dog-button ' from w hichi strych-nine is obtained, areosomec of ther deecotables substancea foundi in beer! These arepoteit p)oi--ons, and the brewer foundusing them should be drowned at oncein one of his ow-n vats, The Uiritish ParIliament paissed a law to prevent thisnefariious business. Tihec following1 is anextract: 'No dru'gist, rendor of or d' a!crin drugs, or cheist, or any other pinson, shall sell or deliver to any licensedbsrewer. dealer in or retailer of beer,knowing themu to be suoi, or shall sell ordeliver to any person on account of, or intrust for, any such brewer dealer or retailer, any liquor called byv the nameo of orsold for coloring, from whatever materialthe samne mayv be made; or any materialor preparation -thier than ungroundlbrown malt, for the darkening the colorof worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol,honAy, qulasma. cocculbis indieus, grainsof para1dise, Guinea prupper, or o -hun, orany extract or preparaitIion of molasses, orany articlo or preparation to be used iuworts beer for or as a substitute for maltor hopa; and if any druggist shall offejndin any of these particulars, such prep~aration, &c., shall be forfeited, and may beseized by any othie~r of excise, andl theperson so oflhnd ing shall forfeit five hund red poundls.'"Under this law, very many druggistsand brewers were brought to grief, andyet the' practice continues. Unless theAmerican public are reaidy to admxit the-imnacu late purity and innoc~ nee ofAmerican brewers, they musst ho contentwhile drinking their beer to cherish thebelief that they are at the same timeguzzhing seome narcotic poison or damnaging medicine. In view of the unprocedented growth of the barley crop; of thegreat increase of the numnber of mahtersand brewers; of the vast unlanown gualities of beer that arp drunk in every cityand almost every town ,in the continent,It isabe dictatn of sound wisdom that theattention of legislators should be called tothe subject of the adulteration our maltliqniors, and severe wpnalties should benfitdas a. preventivo."JOHN.C, SEGERtW BEER Is pure andrelable.Colunabia, Feb 27. tfIhave this day purobasma the entire.1stock of yohnston & Pettiorew.F eb,15, 1877.
